Résumé:

"In the early 1520s, Giulio Romano made sixteen drawings of couples in various sexual positions. Known as I modi (the positions), the drawings were modeled on classical sources and themselves became a model for erotica in early modern Europe ... The book is generously illustrated and includes full translations of the infamous sonnets that Pietro Aretino wrote to accompany I modi"--Back cover.
